# Wireless LAN adapter configuration # # Theory of operation : # # The script attempts to match a block of settings to the specific wireless # card inserted, the *first* block matching the card is used. # The address format is "hwaddr", with * as a wildcard. # 'hwaddr' is the unique MAC address identifier of the wireless card. # The MAC address is usually printed on the card, or can be found via ifconfig. # Some examples here use only half of the MAC address with a wildcard to # match a whole family of cards... # # All the Wireless specific configuration is done through the Wireless # Extensions, so we will just call 'iwconfig' with the right parameters # defined below. # Of course, you need to have iwconfig installled on your system. # To download iwconfig, or for more info on Wireless Extensions : # http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html # # Note : you don't need to fill all parameters, leave them blank, in most # cases the driver will initialise itself with sane defaults values or # automatically figure out the value... And no drivers do support all # possible settings... # # -- This is a modified '/etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts' script -- # VERBOSE=1 case "$HWADDR" in ## NOTE : Comment out the following five lines to activate the samples below ... ## --------- START SECTION TO REMOVE ----------- ## Pick up any Access Point, should work on most 802.11 cards *) INFO="Any ESSID" ESSID="any" ;; ## ---------- END SECTION TO REMOVE ------------ # Here are a few examples with a few Wireless LANs supported... # The matching is done on the first 3 bytes of the MAC address # SMC2835W EZ Connect g 2.4GHz 54 Mbps Wireless Cardbus Adapter 00:04:E2:*) INFO="SMC2835W EZ Connect g 2.4GHz 54 Mbps Wireless Cardbus Adapter" # ESSID (extended network name) : My Network, any ESSID="any" # NWID/Domain (cell identifier) : 89AB, 100, off NWID="" # Operation mode : Ad-Hoc, Managed, Master, Repeater, Secondary, auto MODE="Managed" # Frequency or channel : 1, 2, 3 (channel) ; 2.422G, 2.46G (frequency) FREQ="" CHANNEL="7" # Sensitivity (cell size + roaming speed) : 1, 2, 3 ; -70 (dBm) SENS="" # Bit rate : auto, 1M, 11M,54M RATE="auto" # Encryption key : 4567-89AB-CD, s:password # Example for 40-bit encryption: #KEY="883e-aa67-21 [1] key 5501-d0da-87 [2] key 91f5-3368-6b [3] key 2d73-31b7-96 [4]" # Example for 104-bit encryption (aka 128-bit WEP): #KEY="d5ad2f05abd048ecf10b1c80c7" KEY="" # RTS threshold : off, 500 RTS="" # Fragmentation threshold : off, 1000 FRAG="" # Other iwconfig parameters : power off, ap 01:23:45:67:89:AB IWCONFIG="" # iwspy parameters : + 01:23:45:67:89:AB IWSPY="" # iwpriv parameters : set_port 2, set_histo 50 60 IWPRIV="" ;; # Lucent Wavelan IEEE (+ Orinoco, RoamAbout and ELSA) # Note : wvlan_cs driver only, and version 1.0.4+ for encryption support 00:60:1D:*|00:02:2D:*) INFO="Wavelan IEEE example (Lucent default settings)" ESSID="Wavelan Network" MODE="Managed" # RATE="auto" KEY="s:secu1" # To set all four keys, use : # KEY="s:secu1 [1] key s:secu2 [2] key s:secu3 [3] key s:secu4 [4] key [1]" # For the RG 1000 Residential Gateway: The ESSID is the identifier on # the unit, and the default key is the last 5 digits of the same. # ESSID="084d70" # KEY="s:84d70" ;; # Cisco/Aironet 4800/3x0 # Note : MPL driver only (airo/airo_cs), version 1.3 or later 00:40:96:*|00:02:8A:*) INFO="Cisco/Aironet example (Cisco default settings)" ESSID="any" # To set all four ESSID, use iwconfig v21 and the same trick as above MODE="Managed" # RATE="11M auto" KEY="off" # KEY="d5ad2f05abd048ecf10b1c80c7" ;; # Samsung MagicLan (+ some other PrismII cards) # Note : Samsung binary library driver, version 1.20 or later 00:00:F0:*|00:02:78:*) INFO="Samsung MagicLan example (Samsung default settings)" ESSID="any" MODE="Managed" CHANNEL="4" RATE="auto" # KEY="883e-aa67-21 [1] key 5501-d0da-87 [2] key 91f5-3368-6b [3] key 2d73-31b7-96 [4]" # IWCONFIG="power on" ;; # Raytheon Raylink/WebGear Aviator2.4 # Note : doesn't work yet, please use for debugging only :-( 00:00:8F:*|00:00:F1:*) INFO="Raylink/Aviator2.4 example (Aviator default ad-hoc setting)" ESSID="ADHOC_ESSID" MODE="Ad-Hoc" RATE="auto" IWPRIV="set_framing 1" ;; # Old Lucent Wavelan 08:00:0E:*) INFO="Wavelan example (Lucent default settings)" NWID="0100" MODE="Ad-Hoc" FREQ="2.425G" KEY="off" ;; # Netwave (Xircom Netwave/Netwave Airsurfer) 00:80:C7:*) INFO="Netwave example (Netwave default settings)" NWID="100" KEY="00" ;; # Proxim RangeLan2/Symphony (what is the MAC address ???)
